Caspar Retractor 50mm side screw

Clinical Application

Provides stable retraction and maintained exposure of soft tissue and cervical vertebral anatomy during anterior cervical spine procedures such as anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF), corpectomy, and anterior cervical decompression. The instrument secures retracted soft tissues to preserve a clear operative corridor for microscopic or loupe-assisted work, implant placement, and plate fixation.

Design & Configuration

The side-screw locking configuration permits incremental adjustment and firm fixation of the retractor blades without the need for continual manual tensioning. A 50 mm size delivers a controlled working span appropriate for single-level cervical exposure while minimizing soft-tissue stretch. The self-retaining design facilitates two-handed surgical technique and helps maintain consistent visualization throughout dissection, decompression, and instrumentation steps.
